I thought it was a good idea too, so heres a thread for all those stupid expensive, and fast, toy cars! :lol

So I have alot of RC cars. No CSBS Wallyworlds either.

My main car is a RC10B4 FT. It is completely carbon/graphite, with some aluminium parts. It is currently running a brushed 15t Orion BB SV2, and a Novak XRS ESC. I have a Futaba 3PM for a radio. I have about 20 cars total, including a few Stampedes and Rustlers, 2 RC10t3, TC3, TT01, TB02, 5x RC18s(I have every model) and Micro-T, and DT.

Where do you guys run your cars? I am looking to run my street cars, and want to start drifting, but I am the only one out here that seems to have on-road cars…

I just noticed that to. Looks like they were combined instead, lol.

I use to run mine in Lowes parking lot behind target in colonie. It was just paved not to long ago, and is a good size.

Me and Jeff seem to be the only ones running the RS4’s. So were running street all the time. There use to be a thread on this before and a few meets were posted but I don’t think they ever happened.

That RS4 is clean! I am def down for a meet, preferably when its warmer :lol I would put my TB02 or TC3 w/ the Novak brushless against that .15, I think I would give it a good run.

The .15 will not be in there come spring time.

Heres my old 1/4 Raco JacRabbit. I loved this buggy, but sold it and bought my first Honda.

What are you looking for? Truck or buggy? On-road or off? I need to slim my cars down, I have 3 Stampedes, its a good basher truck… They are only 2wd, but are pretty damn fun!

That buggy is 1/4 scale with a 30cc engine on it.

Steve, I have a few RS4’s lying around in parts. I can toss one together for you if you wanted. I am sure Jeff has some parts if I don’t have everything.

Cool. I almost bought a Rush back in the day. Got a Nitro Rustler instead. I dont like the nitro cars myself, so I sold them, Im all electric now. My only HPI is my Micro RS4 Drift. That little car is so fun on hardwood or smooth floors!
